was working fine yesterday, and then now it's not loading up
it goes into black screen, and crashing my whole PC - already tried verifying, and re-installing the game, but same issue

@upper salmon check all graphic programs updates, check no new updates
Also, have you been to any nodded server or are you using mods?

Have he been to any nodded servers?

craggy ferry
#

He is in my server since the start of the game. 40hrs in my server

#

The server is also not bought

#

Its the server from the game itself

sharp forge
#

Okay, so you need to check all graphic drivers, put everything back to normal in-game

#

It's something with the graphics settings, I have just found some people had this issue

craggy ferry
#

Its probably thinking might be an AMD issue since I am in Nvidia while he is on AMD gpu

#

My gpu is rtx 4070 while his gpu is rx 6800xt

sharp forge
#

It is def something with graphics, did he do anything new?

#

And did this start happening after the new update?

Okay, so this is not part of game

#

Check dirextx aswell

#

If nothing has helped, wait for a dev to help you, but it might take time.
Our buddy had same issue, he had to reinstall graphic driver and it worked fine

sharp forge
#

Not sure
I had it with Nvidia

#

It was when game came out

craggy ferry
#

Ok ok

craggy ferry
# sharp forge Not sure I had it with Nvidia

hello again, apparently my brother @upper salmon has done all of this but still received black screen even downgrading his drivers didn't manage to get past menu just black screen

#

do you other suggestions rather than waiting for a major patch?

@sharp forge
i did the save thing, and im already at the part of a new character creation
and after a few seconds, still doing the black screen

it disconnects my monitor to my PC, although i can still hear in my discord

i also did a DDU and re-installation of my gpu driver

next was, i did the backup of steam cloud troubleshooting, and the game started fine - and just went inside the game to delete my old server (although this is fine for me, i can create a new one)

exited the game, and steam cloud replaced

and then fingers crossed, i started the game again, got in the menu, and then just went black screen again

#

am gonna have to try one last before i stop

ddu, and re-install the new driver while i still have the backup save, since the new character creation TS did not work

disable. replace, andenable cloud - the game will be fine for a few minutes, and then disable the cloud before i exit the game - in that way, the cloud wont save my progress

Try to put shaders off, reduce graphic settings to minimum, turn off frame generation

#

@sharp forge i managed to open the game and lower the settings immediately

it was so nervous wrecking 🫠

idk what happened, but i just reinstalled the AMD GPU driver multiple times

and almost about to update my bios

before i updated my bios (which i didnt yet), the game suddenly worked

and i took your advice to lower the settings really quick

#

this is really fine since we managed to love the game 😅 even thogh it's on early access (well, we played the ac black flag, and it was very awesome)

900p on 1440p 🫠 , never thought id be going back to that time again xD, but still hoping for a fix for this

and also fingers cross, we'll check and see if i can manage to play longer when joining my brother's server

sharp forge
#

Yeah, hope it works

#

Have a good game hehe

erm, what are your pc graphic settings?

hushed coral
#

having the same problem here already did everything yet the game still crash the graphic driver and no it is not normal since its the only game to do it all my other game are working fine with my amd setup so it has to do with something in their last update/hotfix they did this week

craggy ferry
#

maxed out

#

since we use upscaling

#

but now low settings then back to 900p

#

Well it works but hoping it will be fixed soon

#

Our machines are not being utilized enough

# sharp forge erm, what are your pc graphic settings?

pc spec: amd ryzen 7 5800x3d , radeon sapphire 6800xt, 64gb trident z g skills and almost 10 tb of m.2/hard drive . windows and related componant installed on 1 distinct m.2 and all game on another m.2 everything else is on other hard drive

craggy ferry
#

well mine crashed yesterday and only lowering settings worked

hushed coral
#

im on 1080p

#

ill just leave the game on the side for now like i did for the past 2 week, only thing i did is create a character then closed the game without joining anygame when i bought it

#

until they do another hotfix/update

sharp forge
#

wtf, you should be fine

#

are you using shaders? frame generation?

#

I put my game on frame generation since day one and never lagged
